    It’s really more of a form of amusement than a contest. :) and it cahllenges us to think outside of the jewelry box.

    BTW, did you get that squid?

  14. puppychick  labratbecky
    puppychick labratbecky says:

    I found one for $35 and didn’t want to spend that much just to repurpose. :) I then tried MAKING a squid out of hair binders, which actually works fairly well. I started pimping that up and decided it was a ridiculous amount of work so I quit but I will show you a picture. And while I was rummaging for hairbinders (which are stashed away because a little over a year ago I cut a foot off my hair and no longer have any) I found a pair of things that made perfect earrings. :)
